Synopsys, Inc., alongside technical collaborators at Microsoft Ignite, unveiled a simulation-driven framework for optimizing dynamic manufacturing processes in real time. First deployed by Krones, a leader in fully integrated packaging and bottling line systems, the framework was used to create a physically accurate virtual assembly line with optimization outputs accounting for critical variables, such as bottle shape, liquid viscosity, and fill level. Optimizing production workflows in real time is a longstanding challenge for manufacturers. Conventional computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations provide powerful, high-fidelity insights but can take hours to complete. Synopsys' GPU-accelerated, cloud-native simulation solver is transforming a business challenge into a competitive advantage by slashing simulation workloads from 3-4 hours to less than 5 minutes, unlocking rapid scenario analyses and continuous improvements. OpenUSD is key to this solution, seamlessly enabling interoperability across computer-aided engineering (CAE) tools and platforms, so teams can rapidly collaborate and iterate on simulation results — unlocking smarter,
